Google Docs is similar to using [[#|Microsoft Word]], with some differences. Google Docs allows you to save and share documents in the [[#|Cloud]]. It provides the opportunity for real-time collaboration with others on the same document. You have several options for who to share your document with: 1) You can make it public for anyone to search and see 2) You can share it with specific people by inviting via their email addresses or 3) You can keep it Private. If you are use to using Word and have trouble making the adjustment to Google Docs you can still use Word to type your document and then share it via Google Docs with "[[#|Cloud]] Connect." Cloud Connect automatically sync's your word, excel, powerpoint, ect. with your Google Docs account. You can occasionally run into some formatting problems doing this, but for the most part it works great! This is Google's version on PowerPoint. As stated above, if you are use to the functions of PowerPoint you can simple use [[#|Cloud]] Connect to sync and share your presentations.
